separation from baby

my baby is 10 months old and i wanted to start going to the gym for an hour a day and leaving her with my mum. However im worried that her being separated from me each day will cause her to have negative impacts on her development. Any ideas if this is the case?

Do you mean ten weeks? X

no she’s 10 months old x

I don't think so. A lot of babies are in nursary or looked after by family by this age for longer, as parents have to return to work. It's probably quite healthy and important for her independence to be able to go a little time without you, so starting with 1hr to go to the gym sounds like a good place to start. Just explain to her where you are going and that you'll be back- or go while she is napping and she may not even notice!
